Tottenham and Arsenal are among the favourites for winning the title this season, but no matter what happens at White Hart Lane, Leicester City fans could be delighted. Maybe a draw will be a ‘suicidal’ result for both teams.

Spurs are in very good form. They have won 3 consecutive home Premier League matches. In addition, they have lost only 2 games at White Hart Lane this season in The Premiership. Moreover, Tottenham have shown consistency all season long and they went through to the 1/8-finals of The Europa League, smashing Fiorentina 3-0. Tottenham Hotspur turned things around against Swansea City in their previous home game in The Premier League. The left back Danny Rose scored the winning goal in the 77th minute of the game.

Arsenal struggled against Manchester United at Old Trafford in their previous away game of The Premier League. The Gunners couldn’t stop the talented youngster Marcus Rashford, who found the net twice. Now, Arsenal must concentrate, because they are risking losing their chance of winning the title. There is a real possibility Arsenal will be without a single trophy at the end of the season.
